HOW TO USE

Debco Orchid Coarse Mix is ready to use straight from the bag with no further additives required.

1. Select a new pot that will comfortably accommodate the plant for the next 2 years.
2. Place the plant into the pot, ensuring the bulb is level with the top of the pot.
3. Fill the new mixture around the root system while holding the plant, and gently tap the top to work the mix in and around the entire root system.
4. Fill the pot to the top rim with the mix.
5. Lightly water the tray and place it in a warm, sunny location.

ONGOING PLANT CARE

• A balanced fertiliser was added at manufacture; however, additional fertiliser may be required over time, depending on the plant's needs.
• Feeding is critical to flowering because, without sufficient food, the plant’s bulbs will not grow large enough to flower in the following year.
• The easiest way to feed your Orchids is by topping up with controlled-release fertiliser when required. For even better results, you can supplement with a soluble fertiliser during the warmer months.
• Plants should be divided and re-potted with new potting mix when they outgrow the pot or after 24 months.
